I havent played since ICC came out. Among a few reasons I left because of the player base. With a lot of the immature player base moving to star wars do you think its worth coming back or will WOW still be what it is today?

 

I will mainly coming back for PvP with a small amount of PvE

Why would you make the assumption that a lot of the immature players will be leaving for SWTOR?  And if that's the main reason you left, then no...it's not worth coming back because that won't have changed.

Because I played the Beta and the game is focused around kids and casual players.

No, it's actually not.  But nice generalization anyway.  It's casual-friendly for sure, but no more so than WoW is.  And the idea that it is focused around kids is pure BS.   WoW is more of a kid-game than TOR is.  And I'd bet you that if there was a way to poll the average players' ages in WoW vs. TOR, you'd find that the older players will gravitate to TOR.  

So your broad generalization is pretty weak, particularly when you are judging it on beta, where ANYONE can test the game, including the WoW kiddies.

every game every server will have their immature groups. but if you think going back to wow now because of tor, then i would too say no, not a good idea because there will always be immaturity in a game.

I think immaturity is a very open word. Im sure theres immature players in Eve, but Wow had its own type. I know there is smart 13 years old there with a lot of respect, but there was some many young kids playing WOW that doing an instance was just horrible. Chat was pretty a day care full of brats. Made the whole experience not very welcoming. Maybe im just used to play with "computer" players that respect others and want to put in 100% all the time. I came from DAOC originally and MMO's then were based on a player base that wanted to put in the time and not just expect everything handed to them.

 

Anyways for people that are playing now, how is PvP (Arena and BG's) ?
